Perforation management

[post-views]
1

23 YF presented with pain and clinical signs of GP inside the buccal aspect of the gingiva around tooth #11 (FDI). The scan shows the buccal perforation with two GP points and an apical finding. Initially we removed all GP fragments internally and repaired the internal aspect of the perforation with SDR and interim CaOH was placed into the true canal. Second visit, the patient was asymptomatic and the surgical phase involved repairing the perforation defect with Geristore. The RCT was then completed and the access was closed with resin. Patient was very happy with the aesthetics at the follow-up and no- probing was evident at the perforation site through the buccal marginal gingiva. I hope this turns out well long-term.

That’s a very nice save! This is specialty-level care for sure.

Not sure the Geristore buys you anything special here—regular flowable will work too, I think.

What helps this case is the level of interseptal bone on the adjacent teeth. I think Super K would want to see PRP over the defect :-))……

Very nice work!

Nice case Viraj. I’m a fan of Shofu BeautiFil Flow Plus No Flow. It doesn’t slump (thus the “No Flow”) and you can guide it into place as you’re expressing it out of the syringe.

‘That’s a very nice save!’ Seriously, fixing perforations like that sounds intense. I wonder if the moca test  screens for the kind of planning and focus needed for such intricate procedures? Just imagining the steady hands required makes me appreciate my dentist more, haha!
